Support organization

Hospitality Homes

Hospitality Homes matches out-of-town patients and an accompanying support person with short-term lodging during treatment at Boston-area hospitals and medical institutions. Patients of all ages and non-contagious diagnoses may apply from the United States or internationally, without a financial-need or citizenship gate, if they live more than 50 miles from the hospital, retain a permanent home, and meet active-treatment and adult-screening rules. Placements may be volunteer host homes or, in special circumstances, furnished apartments, hotels, or corporate housing; exact rates and assignment criteria differ by inventory. The program remains active, but its live portal was temporarily closed to new applications on August 24, 2026 because of application volume, with no reopening date published. A public Guest Resources directory provides Boston travel links and outside support leads that require independent verification.
